The Princess, very mature for her seven years, wears a cap with a jewelled fillet inscribed 'Ich Di[en]' in which are three feathers. Round her neck on a rope of pearls hangs an oval miniature of the Prince of Wales. She holds her left fist over the bowl, saying, "There you impertinent boasting swaggering Pigmy, - take that, - You attempt to take my Grandpap's Crown indeed, and plunder all his Subjects, Fillet you know that the Spirit and Indignation of every Girl in the Kingdom is roused at your Insolence."--British Museum online catalogue
